Description
Jong Weon Lee and co-authors test a brain scan in 2026 that may forecast how well stroke patients will move again. The scan tracks how much sugar the brain burns, a sign of how hard its cells work. After a stroke, low burn in a zone may mean weak healing there.
Forty patients with a first stroke high in the brain had the scan early. Staff scored nerve and limb strength at the start and again at three and six months. A lopsided burn score from the scan was set next to those later scores. If the scan sorts healers well, rehab teams can plan hard or light paths from the start.
